The Journey

Melbourne Gardens

Discover the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, a serene inner-city oasis spanning 38 hectares. Established in 1846, these gardens are a living tapestry of over 8,500 plant species from around the world. Admire meticulously manicured lawns, tranquil lakes, and diverse themed gardens, including the Ian Potter Foundation Children's Garden and the Guilfoyle's Volcano. Wander through the Aboriginal Heritage Walk to learn about the land's Indigenous history, or simply relax and enjoy the stunning natural beauty. The Gardens offer a peaceful escape and a celebration of botanical diversity, making it a must-visit for nature lovers and those seeking tranquility in the heart of Melbourne.

Know Before You Go

This tour includes a guide who knows a lot about the gardens. The guide will drive the bus and tell stories about the plants. What's not included is getting picked up or dropped off at your hotel. You also need to find your own way to the gardens. Make sure to check where to meet the bus before you go.

Hot Tip

To make sure you get a seat, get to the Visitor Centre about 20 minutes early. This will give you time to buy your ticket and find the bus. If you don't mind going backwards, the back seat is a good spot!
